ABSTRACT:
An articulatable wick assembly for applying offset-preventing liquid to a surface in a fuser includes support plates for each end. Each support plate has a bent cam tab and a spring engagement arm. Compression springs between each spring engagement arm and a base urge the wick into engagement with the surface to which liquid is to be applied. A cam engages the cam tab to rotate the wick away from the surface against the urging of the spring. Each support plate is mounted to a pivot bar for pivotal movement of the wick assembly.
